One or two sentences explaining how the source is credible based on two or more criteria. For example: is the source current? Who is the author or publisher? What are the author’s qualifications to write about this topic? Is the argument supported by current evidence? Has the source been peer-reviewed? Be specific.
One or two sentences that explains how the source supports the argument. How does the source support, expand, or challenge the argument? Where will the source integrate into the paper and for what purpose? Be sure to use only the third person point of view.
